Potential clients must first meet the criteria for substance use disorder which is determined by our clinical team. This will happen over the phone or in person and involves fully understanding a person’s history and making sure the program is a good fit for their situation. Secondly, clients should be able to cover the cost of treatment either through insurance, self-pay, or other means. Give us a call to discuss your insurance coverage and arrangements available on an as-needed basis.
